Electrical estimate and invoice templates
Service work is flat-rate or time-and-material; panel and circuit work is quoted per job with the permit included. These spreadsheets come set up for that, with working totals, tax and deposit, and an example 200-amp panel upgrade to start from.
Free, no sign-up. Works in Excel, Google Sheets and Apple Numbers.

Tips for electrical estimates
- Show the breaker count as a quantity so adding AFCI or GFCI breakers is a one-cell change.
- Keep utility coordination on its own line; it's real time on your side that customers don't see.
- For time-and-material jobs, change the labor line's qty to the hours actually worked on the invoice.
Electrical terms included
- Power will be off during the changeover; the scheduled outage window is confirmed with the utility.
- Corrections to existing wiring found during the work are quoted separately before they are done.
Plus standard validity and payment terms. Edit all of them to match your policies and local law.
FAQ
Electrical template questions
Have a question we didn't cover? Book a demo and ask a product specialist.
How do I price AFCI and GFCI breakers?
Add them as separate lines with their own unit price instead of folding them into the standard breaker line. They cost several times more, and code often requires them on a panel replacement.
Do I need to list the permit?
Listing it makes it clear the work will be inspected, and it keeps the fee out of your labor rate. Most homeowners expect to see it.
Do the formulas work in Google Sheets?
Yes. The line totals, subtotal, taxable amount, tax, deposit and balance use standard functions (SUM, SUMIF, ROUND, IF) that work in Excel, Google Sheets and Numbers.
